Spinazolla was in the running until he did his Achilles.

Pens aren’t included, so it was technically 2.4

Agree. Don’t see how Denmark was ever going to go head to head with England (talent matters). Getting that first goal gave them a real shot but they never really threatened the goal much.

Don’t see how they could have played it differently.

Also, lol England at their sub usage. You got some of the best in the world on your bench. They’re going to be better than the people who got 90 minutes on them.

City were also leaking a month ago they wanted to sell sterling to buy kane and Grealish

Neither is the own goal. So it’s above 3 vs 0.3. Obviously can’t use xG that way exactly, but you’ll be shocked to know that Jal doesn’t have a clearheaded recollection of events

You two have been consistently wrong about everything to do with this game.

Denmark have no chance with no stars (was 1-1 at FT)
Sancho to start instead of Saka (created first goal)
England to win without conceding becuz itz alwes heppend (HAHAHAHA)
NEAR BAR

The first semi was two teams who want the ball.
This match was of two counter attacking teams who don’t really want over 50% possession. Denmark got to play their preferred style more than England but England just have so much more talent.

Of course, no one said that Denmark had no chance. We said they weren’t favored and the most likely way they’d have success was through a set piece.

That was absolutely dead on.

Yup, the scotsman called it, sterling and Kane where the difference in the end if that’s the way we’re going.

Sad, but true… :man_facepalming:

I think he’s fantastic but can’t see Arsenal wanting him. Their best players are already wingers, they have holes everywhere else. They just spent 70m on Pepe, another similar fee for Sterling is asking a lot.
He’s obviously better than pepe but you’d have to sell him then at a gigantic loss.

Agreed. I kind of like England against Italy tbh. Will be interesting to see if Italy flies up the pitch because I don’t think that’s a good strategy against England’s setup right now

I literally posted “I can’t see Denmark scoring more than 1 and their best route is by set piece” and get told my analysis was wrong lol.

Even if we had the money and the space in the squad for him, Sterling (or any other top quality player) is extremely unlikely to come to a club that’s not even in the EL. Sad but true.

Hes making over 200k a week, think he would join any of the 10 clubs able to match those wages.

That’s another opinion of yours that there’s no evidence for whatsoever.

Huh? The evidence is that basically no athlete in history in their prime has taken a 50% pay cut.

He was very much not in his prime though, he was 38. Players taking pay cuts at the end is common, when they’re in their mid 20s it just never happens.

Lol actually took your word for it, nh.
